What Is Serverless?

Is it possible to connect serverless to databases? You said that there is no persistence of data as there is no file system in serverless, but ultimately, most of the applications need data persistence, mostly in the form of databases.

Serverless is BS

less is more

Fantastic presentation. I've used Netlify before.

Sounds like Nick Kroll lol

Serverless is 'rental'. That's all. It's 4 walls and a roof...but you don't own it. You gotta follow the landlord's rules. Great for some. Horrible for others.

no such thing as why or care or interesx or not

Hello Sir, can you share some video for learning react if you have any??

Great video, James!

Video about nothing.

I have a question regarding serverless - So i cache something, no matter the size of my application will i always have access to that cache no matter how big my application becomes? If i serve 10 or 100.000 clients doesnt matter?

What's the difference between Firebase and serverless functions? Is it that with Firebase the functions are already written for you ?

Thank you but this explanation is a little abstract. I think this doesn't really explain what serverless means in concrete terms. What is a serverless function, practically? Like, in code, what does it look like vs not being serverless? The example you give, to my understanding, shows you calling a function hosted Netlify ... How is that not a server? 🤔 Thank you in advance for any elaboration.

Can we use websockets with serverless?

I would love to learn how to make something like that image creator function

wow nodejs evolving into glorious PHP. Im tired of python/ruby/JS kids which dont even use OOP, entire Software Engineering goods are forgotten and would bring same problems as was before Sofware Engineering was created

Does it need credit card? I dont have. Sad.

Serverless is like renting a flat instead of building your own house; a flat is ok for young couples but probably won't fit them as they grow their family.

This was so much more interesting than my class's readings haha

great content, thanks!

So is serverless just a place where you add your utility/static functions that you want to store independently from other functions?

Super cool. Servlerless seems like a really cool and viable way to go. Thanks for the video.

I didn't like this video, it's like commercial more than useful tutorial

jamstackfns is gone!

my dude needs a keeps sponsor, good details thank you!

Sooo.. serverless is managed kubernetes 🤔

I dislike AWS's name for Lambda functions, because I learned about lambda functions (arrow functions) first, and that confuses me during conversation sometimes. Such is life.

Dear Brad, don't post this cucumber Quick, pls. On his channel he tells ppl that he doesn't know what hoisting is, what bind function is for et cetera. Also he states that the people that learn from him should not too. Like, this guy is a waste.

Amazing content!

SHOW MORE PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And "maybe that made sense maybe it didn't" are words no one wants to hear in a tutorial...

good video thank you

Awesome man! I like your channel.

I’m pretty new to backend development etc. can I still create a user registration and login function in express js with serveless functions? Because netlify offers server less functions and I want to know if that’s possible

Yo seeing James first made me think I was going insane and crossing wires in my brain

Damn, I was thinking Brad looks different here.

I always thought serverless means there are no server

Is there a discord community?

Thank you

Hostless

serverless absolutely doens't mean "without server"
was the point.

👍

Then why did Amazon prime go away from Serverless?

Thanks James! I'm impressed you did that in one take without stumbling on your words. Teaching is your calling.

I'm not a developer and have no idea what you're talking about. I just clicked on a link and it went to a page that said: Serverless Function crashed
500: INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
Code: FUNCTION_INVOCATION_FAILED

And then there's an ID
I just came here hoping for a clue and wondering if this indicates my computer has a virus? Help or please point me where dummies go for answers

Engrossed in these details? A book with analogous content might captivate you further. "AWS Unleashed: Mastering Amazon Web Services for Software Engineers" by Harrison Quill

Hey James! I'm a subscriber of your channel and Traversy Media. And it was very strange to see you at the first moment. 😃😁 Thank you for this video. I really like it!

Thanks for the clear and concise explanation! I send people to this video when they seem confused about serverless.

As for me: I've messed around with it and I go serverless when I'm forced to do so (for some parts of Alexa, for instance), but most of the money and work these days is earmarked for full-stack developers.
Serverless devs are getting $75k while full-stack are getting $185k.

In my experience, the serverless model seems to be favored by younger devs, but I can't tell if that's because they haven't had time to delve into full-stack, because they just don't like full-stack, because the methodology-du-jour is serverless, or because the older devs (me, late-30s) grew up in a full-stack world.

Managed servers? :D
